The Art of Creation
Dr Joel Brown
Nature is beautiful. Is this beauty just a random by-product of naturalistic processes that we have evolved to appreciate or is it something more? Is modern science missing something by looking at the natural world through a coldly reductionist perspective? YES! In this session we will step back and look at the grandeur of Creation as a work, not just of incredible engineering, but of art.

Major Evolutionary Blunders
Dr. Randy Guliuzza
We will examine several evolutionary blunders which demonstrate how exuberant extrapolations of vivid evolutionary imagination explains why evolutionists have made, and will continue to make, embarrassing scientific blunders.

A Theory of Biological Design: Bringing an Overdue Revolution to Biology
Dr. Randy Guliuzza
Just as Flood geology is an alternative theory to uniformitarianism to explain geology, we need for biology a theory of biological design (TOBD) that assumes creatures look engineered because they were engineered. A TOBD is a profoundly different replacement framework for interpreting biological phenomena that’s principally creature-focused and assumes biological functions are best explained by engineering principles.

Inquiry and Uncertainty: Exploring the Mysteries of Creation Biology
Dr David Lee
Science, especially biology, is typically taught as a body of knowledge rather than a means of learning about the world. This is true even among creationists, though they differ on some of the specifics. This talk will focus on the process of scientific inquiry, drawing reasonable conclusions, and building scientific models. Come learn how God has designed and equipped us to explore His creation and seek out answers to the mysteries of Creation biology.

How to Survive a Flood (of Cicadas)
Dr Joel Brown
In Noah's day, the world experienced a deluge of water. In our day, we experience a deluge of cicadas. In this bug-centric session, we will explore the amazing biology of cicadas, some of God's noisiest creatures. In 2024, trillions of these insects will emerge from their underground homes to make their presence known. While we ponder how to survive this flood of cicadas, it brings to mind an even bigger question: how did cicadas (and other creepy crawlies) survive the flood of Noah's day?

Five Minutes with a Darwinist: Exposing the FLUFF of Evolution
Dr. Randy Guliuzza
If you only had five minutes to talk with a friend who believes in evolution, could you quickly topple evolution’s main pillars and present a strong case for creation? We'll acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for you to talk intelligently and succinctly with evolutionists.
